Why another Internet security blog and more ‘black hole’ lists?
It has become increasingly apparent the malware, spam, phishing and other BadWare distributors are now engaged in automated domain generation, 100’s to 1,000’s per week, which is proving a serious difficulty for major domain / IP ‘blocklist’ and ‘blacklist’ providers to simply keep up . Added to this we now have; iFrame attacks via web portals, several major international web hosts with 1,000’s of their innocent and money paying clients having hacked and infectious (to web surfers) web sites, DDos (distributed denial of service), polymorphic malware that many anti-virus / spyware / malware solutions are unable to detect, and millions of PC users being directed to rogue and fake web sites. Finally we have the rise of the Botnets, anonymously managed fast and double-flux (ever changing IP addresses) control of 1,000’s of infected zombie PCs.
